ADEA
Steering
Committee
Meeting
France
(close
outskirts
of
Paris)
ADEA
is
governed
by
a
Steering
Committee
composed
of
ten
African
ministers
of
education
and
representatives
of
most
multilateral,
bilateral
and
private
development
organizations
that
work
in
the
education
sector
in
Africa.
The
Steering
Committee
is
both
ADEA's
governing
body
and
ADEA's
primary
instance
for
coordination
among
funding
agencies,
among
African
ministries
of
education,
and
between
these
two
components.
The
ten
ministers
of
education
who
sit
on
the
Steering
Committee
constitute
the
ADEA
Bureau
of
Ministers.
They
are
chosen
by
the
Caucus
of
Ministers
which
consists
of
all
the
ministers
of
education
of
sub-Saharan
Africa.
Ministers
are
selected
by
region
(Western
Africa,
Eastern
Africa,
Central
Africa,
Southern
Africa
and
the
Indian
Ocean)
and
serve
on
the
bureau
for
a
four-year
period.
Bureau
members
are
selected
on
the
basis
of
alphabetical
rotation
by
country.
During
its
Steering
Committee,
ADEA
also
organizes
thematic
seminars.
The
main
objective
of
these
seminars
is
to
provide
a
venue
for
high
level
discussions
between
ministers
of
education
and
member
agencies
on
priority
issues
for
education
in
Africa.
Seminars
have
focused
on:
new
initiatives
and
trends
in
development
cooperation
for
education;
the
financing
of
education;
the
future
of
ADEA
working
groups
in
the
present
African
context;
and
follow-up
activities
towards
the
improvement
of
educational
quality.
